On the Thursday morning of June 26, 2008, there was heard a very tortured scream of agony throughout the United States of America. This scream started in low tones and then gathered strength as all of the originating sources came together to form this horrible sound. Some started early, some a little later, but no more than one half hour separated the onset of the screams.
No, none of the gates of Hades opened and it wasn’t the poor unblessed tortured soul’s screams of mercy we heard.
It was the ACLU and it’s other sister organizations screams of agony we heard. You see, the United States Supreme court made public their ruling of the Second Amendment case they opted to hear. Now, the ACLU and friends thought they had a slam dunk with this case, after all, they’ve had Justice Ginsberg rooting for them for years, this case was basically a no brainer, as they tend to be when they are called to be heard.
If in case you don’t already know, the court had the audacity to uphold a citizen’s right to bear arms under the second amendment, this situation could not be worse for the ACLU and the leftist organizations of this nation, the various states where it is next to impossible to obtain a permit doesn’t have their old stand-by arguments of a well armed regulated militia to deny gun ownership permits to law abiding citizens by the bushel basket full.
No sooner was the ink dry on the decision when Speaker of the House, Bela Pelosi stated that DC can still regulate gun ownership. I just wonder what court she and her crowd plan on taking future cases such as these. The International court in The Hague? She may try, but until I see the signed document ceding our laws to that court, I guess one could say they are stuck up that famous creek without a paddle.
Now, with this case out of the way, I suppose the ACLU will have to search out pedophiles on their own to defend, after all, a child molester takes precedence over all other citizen’s rights, unless, of course it involves prayer on or near a public building or property. This my friends is the most vile display of rights violations I have ever heard of.
I think I will donate $10.00 American (sorry, I don’t deal with Euros) to the ACLU, and then apply for a gun permit, if turned down, I wonder if I could compel them to defend my rights under the second amendment, That should be some show, the most famous leftist organization having to defend a right of the aisle position. I think a snowball in hades would stand a better chance at survival than them defending me and my permit.
Just think of the ramifications this decision will have in all states and most burgs, towns, villages and cities. When the bad guys think about pulling their unregistered hand gun out to possibly rape, rob and murder a person, they may have a rational thought of fire being returned, from someone who has been trained in the safety and use of firearms by the police. I’m not implying that this decision will replace the police departments around the nation, but we/they could surely assist them in apprehending criminals of all variations. I don’t foresee roving bands or posses trying to track these lowlifes down, but if we are going to be armed, why not take it one step further and train the citizenry in the process of looking at a person and get as close to total recall as possible, or as many physical details as possible, so they may work with a police artist or technician to possibly help get a description on the police radio air bands as soon as possible. It would help if the police provided training in how to preserve a crime scene until the police arrive. All of these actions could be well documented for further use in court at a later date.
I’m sure most people in this nation are as fed up with the high crime rate as it is frustrating to most police officers.
I feel we are at a crossroads in the history of this nation. Thanks to this decision, we are finally going to be able to defend ourselves from the low lifers who prey on the weak, lame and disabled, because they are such easy targets. Now the targets have taken on new shapes, and this is definitely more pleasing to those afflicted everyday. The police cannot be everywhere at all times. This decision at least evens the playing field some.
It could have ramifications on our borders also, the illegals; when they cross into our country are met by armed law abiding citizens and told to go back to the hole in the border where they had come from, that action should at first come as a surprise, but after a short time period, it should become an expected confrontation. With our citizens armed, they may be able to convince the armed human smugglers that they picked the wrong place to guide their victims into our nation.
All in all it was a good and fair decision, unlike last weeks where they gave constitutional rights to detainees at Gitmo. Let’s just hope the second amendment rights doesn’t extend to them.
